Suit Size to Pant Size Conversion Chart

Measuring Guide

* To get accurate measurements, you will need a soft measuring tape and a friend or partner to help out. Of course, you can always stop in to any Men's Wearhouse and we'll be happy to take your measurements

Step 1: Chest Measurement Wrap the tape measure around your torso. Go underneath your arms, across your shoulder blades, and over the largest part of your chest. The chest measurement is usually the size of the coat. For a more relaxed fit, add 1 inch to the total measurement.

Step 2: Over Arm Measurement However, if your over arm measurement is more than 7 inches larger than your chest measurement, the over arm measurement trumps the chest measurement. In this case, your suit size needs to match your over arm measurement.

Your over arm measurement is important, particularly if it is larger than your chest measurement. If this is the case, you will need to fit your chest and upper arm rather than rely on the chest measurement alone. For example, if your chest measurement is 40 inches and the over arm measurement is 49 inches (remember, you subtract 7 from the over arm measurement), you will likely want to start with a size 42 to accommodate your larger upper arms and shoulder width.

Measuring Tips

* To get accurate measurements, you will need a soft measuring tape and a friend or partner to help out. Of course, you can always stop in to any Men's Wearhouse and we'll be happy to take your measurements

Step 1: Neck Measurement. Measure your neck below your Adam’s apple, at the place your shirt collar usually hits. Take the total circumference and add ½ inch. This number is your neck size.

Step 2: Sleeve Measurement.Keeping your arm down at your side, measure from behind the center of your neck, over the top of your shoulder, and down to your wrist. This number is your sleeve length.

Measuring Tips

* To get accurate measurements, you will need a soft measuring tape and a friend or partner to help out. Of course, you can always stop in to any Men's Wearhouse and we'll be happy to take your measurements

Step 1: Waist Measurement Measure your waist near your navel. The measuring tape should be snug (do not measure over your belt). For a proper fit, dress slacks are worn above the hipbone on the natural waist at about the height of the navel.

Step 2: Hem Measurement When you purchase slacks, you can choose plain-hemmed or cuff-finished pants when tailoring the pant length. Our standard cuff width is about 1¼ inches. Cuff-finished pants will be cut evenly to the heel.

Plain-hemmed (cuffless) bottoms should be slanted toward the heel—shorter in the front and slightly longer in the back.

Break Types
When the fabric of your pant leg is longer than your physical leg, pants fold or bend above the cuff. This is called a break. There are three types of pants breaks, each of which suits a different style of pants:

Full Break or Deep Break: A more classic and traditional look, best suited to pleated pants with wider legs, the Full Break extends to the top of the shoe heel or further in the back and covers about 2/3 to ¾ of the laces on your shoe in the front. The pants fold once (break) where they meet the top of the shoe, creating more fullness throughout the pant and more coverage to your footwear. (Your socks will never show, even when you’re walking.)

Slight Break or Half-Break: About ¾ to 1 inch shorter than a Full Break, pants with a Slight Break have a slight fold a few inches above the bottom of the hem where the pant cuff hits the shoe. The Slight Break works with both flat-front or pleated trousers, plainly finished or cuffed.

No Break: Also sometimes called a “flood,” No Break pants are just long enough in the front to touch the top of the shoe without creating any bend (break) in the fabric when you are standing normally and looking straight ahead. This allows the pants to drape cleanly throughout the leg and is best suited for a slim, flat-front trouser. Take advantage of the No Break by weaing your fun socks, because when you walk or sit, your socks will definitely show.

Nice pant, but shortI bought a 31Wx32L, which in most pants is just right for me, but these are short on me, which is odd because the other pair of Dockers I ordered in the same size were fine. Unfortunately, they don't sell a 33L or even a 34L, so I'll be returning. Otherwise, great looking pants!

Not SlimThese pants are advertised as "Slim Fit", but are quite wide. Do not be fooled. Nice casual material, but fit is too important for me to keep these.
